Seeing that the mothers and children had basically finished communicating, Xu Xiang took out the pictures of the ingredients he was going to look for today.

"I believe everyone knows that this is a fishing village by the sea, so our specialty here is seafood. However, there is no super large seafood market like in the city, so the children need to follow the instructions and go to the homes of the fishermen to get the ingredients."

"These ingredients look just like the ones in the pictures, including fish, shellfish, lobster and some vegetables. Children, please remember them clearly and don't take the wrong ones."

"Of course, the tasks for your two groups are not exactly the same, and the mission locations are also different. We will give you corresponding maps, and you must follow the maps to get to the mission locations. I believe that the children are so smart that they should already know how to read maps."

"Ao Liangjun and Liang Tianyi need to go to the fisherman's house to get seafood such as hairtail and lobster. They also need to go to the vegetable store to get vegetables such as cabbage and potatoes, go to the tofu store to get tofu and dried tofu, and go to the grain and oil store to buy rice."

"As for Zhou Jiayan, Ying Shishuang, and Song Yiyi, they need to go to another fisherman's house to get scallops, shrimps, small abalone and other seafood. They also need to go to the grain and oil store to get flour and vermicelli, and go to the uncle's house who grows vegetables to get vegetables."

"Does everyone understand?"

The older children naturally understood and nodded. When the two little girls saw their brothers nodding, they also nodded.

Xu Xiang was very satisfied with the reactions of the five children in front of him. He nodded and said, "Well, let's get started without further delay."

After the five children set out from the village center, the mothers were invited to an open room equipped with a 60-inch TV, on which the current situation of the children was broadcast in real time.

This fishing village is not big, but it is not small either. In addition, with the development of tourism in recent years, many homestays, restaurants and other supporting facilities have been built.

The children had short legs, which made them look even smaller as they walked in this small village.

Several mothers looked at him seriously and worriedly, exchanging a few words from time to time.

Shen Qingqing looked at the worried faces of the mothers and stopped taking out her phone to browse.

Everyone else is so worried about the child, she would feel guilty if she was too relaxed.

On the other side, after exiting the gate of the village center, the two groups of children parted ways because of different mission locations.

Zhou Jiayan led the two little sisters to the west, while Liang Tianyi and the others walked to the east.

Taking into account the children’s age, the map was not complicated, so this round mainly tested their ability to recognize the road and their physical strength.

Ao Liangjun and Liang Tianyi had a very smooth journey. Liang Tianyi was smart and recognized the road quickly and accurately. Ao Liangjun was in good physical condition and ran up and down very energetically.

The two of them cooperated very well, and the journey went smoothly. They soon arrived at the first mission location - the fisherman's house.

In contrast, Zhou Jiayan's group was stumbling.

Song Yiyi was only three and a half years old, and her motor skills were not well developed, so she couldn't walk fast at all. Zhou Jiayan had to turn around and give her a hand from time to time.

Although Ying Shishuang is energetic, she is also very curious. She looks at flowers, picks grass, and stops along the way.

The three children walked for half an hour but only covered less than one kilometer.

[This group is really too weak. The production team is unfair.]

[I feel like I can’t complete the mission. The three kids might really go hungry tonight.]

[The rubbish production team is not a human being. They tortured the children like this. Don’t they feel guilty? ]

[The three babies are so pitiful. Xu Gou was beaten up. It's really thanks to him that he thought of it.]

As mothers, Mo Man and Cui Xia were naturally more worried, and both had worried expressions on their faces.

How could they complete their mission if things went on like this? And it would also drag down Zhou Jiayan.

The two of them turned their heads and looked at Shen Qingqing at the same time, but they found that Shen Qingqing was extremely calm. Could it be that she was so confident?

Shen Qingqing saw that both of them were staring at her with some guilt on their faces, and she immediately understood what they were thinking.

It’s so pitiful how loving parents are in this world.

But she wasn't really worried about the child. First, she didn't have such a strong desire to win. Second, in her opinion, Zhou Jiayan, as a brother, should protect his sisters. He drew the groups himself, and there was no shady deal. If he really wanted to blame someone, he could only blame his luck.

But even now, Shen Qingqing still believed that the child would find a way.

Of course, this kind of thing couldn't be said now, so Shen Qingqing smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Friendship comes first and competition comes second. As a brother, Yanyan should take care of his sister. Besides, the competition still has a long time to go, so they may not lose."

Shen Qingqing's calm attitude comforted Mo Man and Cui Xia, and they turned their heads and continued to watch the screen.

Shen Linyan also saw this scene in front of her. She sneered in her heart, but she was calm. As expected, she didn't care about the child because he was not her biological child. She didn't know what she had done to trick the child into being so close to her.

Zhou Jiayan, who was walking in front with a map leading the way, was helpless when he saw the two little girls like this, but he also knew that now was not the time to blame anyone. After all, little girls were indeed physically weaker than boys.

His brain started working rapidly, and he remembered what Shen Qingqing said to him before he left. Everyone has their own strengths. If he observes them more and puts them in suitable positions, he may be able to turn defeat into victory.

Zhou Jiayan stopped and began to observe the two little girls.

Although Song Yiyi is not physically strong, she is a very obedient and serious girl.

Ying Shishuang is a middle school girl who is immersed in her own fantasy, but she has good physical strength and is easily attracted by the attention of others.

He looked at the map in his hand again. Three mission locations were marked on it. He gestured to the center of the three mission points with his hands, and then said to Song Yiyi, "Yiyi, brother will give you a mission now, okay? We will go here in a while, and then you stay here to help us watch the things. Brother knows that you are very serious and obedient, and you will definitely be able to take good care of the things."

Song Yiyi's face was a little conflicted. "But I'm a little afraid of being alone, and I also want to help you with the mission."

Zhou Jiayan stroked the little girl's furry head. "This is also a mission. We will go to three places to get food, which means we have to carry heavy objects everywhere. But if you are willing to stay here and help us watch things, Ying Shishuang and I can speed up. Yiyi, do you understand? And you are not alone, there is also an uncle following you."

Song Yiyi tilted her head, obviously very confused. After a while, she nodded heavily, "Brother, I understand. I will take good care of the things."

Seeing that he had dealt with Song Yiyi, Zhou Jiayan turned to look at Ying Shishuang who was still staring at the handmade video in a street shop.

He took a deep breath and said to Ying Shishuang, "Shuangshuang...Princess..., have you seen "Frozen"? "

When Ying Shishuang heard the words "Frozen", her eyes lit up and she nodded, "Of course I have seen it. Queen Elsa is my favorite Disney princess. She is strong and powerful. I want to be like her in the future."

Zhou Jiayan nodded and continued to coax her, "But Queen Elsa also needs to defeat enemies and complete tasks before she ascends the throne. The task assigned to us by the program team today is the hardships you will encounter on your way to becoming the queen. You need to complete it."

Ying Shishuang sucked her fingers with a thoughtful expression, and after a while she spoke, "But aren't you my prince? You should do it for me."

Zhou Jiayan sighed in his heart at the girl's stubbornness, but remained calm on the surface and continued, "But in movies and fairy tales, princesses have to face the enemy on their own, not have others do it for them. Did Queen Elsa ask the knight to fight the boss on her behalf?"

The little girl sucked her fingers, and after a while she nodded and said, "You are right. This princess will do it herself."

Zhou Jiayan finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. He was able to appease the little princess.

Afterwards, Song Yiyi was taken to the previously determined central location and waited there, while Zhou Jiayan took Ying Shishuang and started running towards the target mission location.

Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked.

[How can a five-year-old child have such an arrangement? ]

[They suddenly picked up speed.]

[Yanyan is really amazing, a natural born leader. ]

【Yanyan is too smart. 】

[I feel like they can turn the tide.]

As mothers of two little girls, Mo Man and Cui Xia felt relieved to see their daughters finally getting back on track, and then they turned around and looked at Shen Qingqing again.

Shen Qingqing still has a smile on her face and looks very calm.

They couldn't help but have a thought in their minds that it was no wonder that Shen Qingqing could raise such a smart and calm child.

Shen Qingqing didn't know that she could cause others to have such a beautiful misunderstanding, but when she saw Zhou Jiayan's actions, she couldn't help but feel a surge of pride in her heart. The little brat was smart for once today, it was really because of my good teaching!

She felt the admiring looks from the other two mothers, and felt even more pleased. She had not expected that Yanyan would make her so proud.

In front of outsiders, Shen Qingqing always gives Zhou Jiayan face.

She first politely praised other children, "Your little girls are great, too. They're so young but they don't cry or make a fuss at all." Finally, she modestly said, "As for Yanyan, I don't really care about him. He has a good little brain and is a little smart."

Everyone had a blank look on their faces. It was like when those kids who got into prestigious schools asked their parents for their experience in disciplining their children, and the parents said it all depended on the children's own self-awareness. They really deserved a beating.

Next, Zhou Jiayan and his team's mission went more smoothly than they had imagined.

Zhou Jiayan brought Ying Shishuang and rushed directly to the mission point, then asked the fisherman for a bag of seafood in a clear and articulate manner.

Then the two children carried the seafood back to where Song Yiyi was waiting. After handing the seafood to Song Yiyi, the two continued to travel light to the next mission point.

I have to say that Ying Shishuang is really a girl with extraordinary strength. Even when Zhou Jiayan felt a little tired, Ying Shishuang was still full of energy, carrying a large bag of fish in her hand, rushing to the front, and muttering, "I want to fight for my subjects."

Zhou Jiayan, who was following behind, was speechless. Why could a little girl take a fairy tale seriously?

Then he thought that it was because she was so full of energy, seemingly having endless strength, that she shared a lot of tasks with him, so he could relax a little. The speechlessness in Zhou Jiayan's heart immediately dissipated a lot.

At the same time, as the amount of food on hand increased, and coupled with the physical consumption from the journey, Ao Liangjun and Liang Tianyi's movements became slower and slower, and both of them were out of breath.

In the end, Ao Liangjun and his team were only slightly ahead of Zhou Jiayan and his team.

Xie Bing and Shen Linyan, who had been calm before, were also a little surprised. What a reversal? Zhou Jiayan and the others were almost catching up?

Xie Bing didn't care about winning or losing, after all, this mission wasn't about winning or losing. She was more worried about her fat son's health. Ao Liangjun looked weak now, not as confident as when he first set out.

As Shen Linyan watched the reversal in front of her, her originally excited heart sank.

She felt it was a sure thing when the grouping results came out. Even though she didn't really want Liang Tianyi to win, she still wanted to see the joke of Shen Qingqing and Zhou Jiayan, mother and son.

Everything went smoothly at the beginning, and Shen Linyan was getting happier. But Zhou Jiayan actually turned the tables with those two girls? Anyone who watched today's live broadcast knew who was the biggest contributor to the turnaround. Shen Linyan felt complicated for a while.

She glanced at Shen Qingqing out of the corner of her eye. Shen Qingqing was resting her chin on his hand, looking at the TV screen leisurely.

Shen Linyan felt unbalanced. Why was Shen Qingqing so lucky? She obviously didn't care about her stepson at all, but her stepson looked so handsome.

Even though I have tried so hard, all my efforts are about to be in vain.

Why do Shen Qingqing get all the good things in this world?

Xie Bing didn't think too much about it. After worrying about his little fat boy's health, he smiled and said to everyone, "It looks like they should be able to complete the task today. We shouldn't be hungry. As long as we don't get hungry at night, everything will be fine."

Hearing Xie Bing's words, everyone in the room laughed, except Shen Linyan, whose smile was a little dim.

Fortunately, at this time both groups of children had arrived at the last mission location. Seeing that the mission was about to be completed, Liang Tianyi and Ao Liangjun immediately perked up.

Especially the fat boy Ao Liangjun, he still remembered the boast he made before the mission, so he shouted to Liang Tianyi, "Xiao Yi, go! Yanyan and the others are waiting for us to rescue them at night! If we fail to complete the mission and get enough food, they will starve."

When Liang Tianyi heard this, he nodded, his eyes full of determination. Yanyan was his little friend, and he had to help him if he was unlucky.

So the two children held hands and started running towards the last task point to look for vegetables.

Seeing this scene, everyone's heart melted.

[Oh my god, the affection between children is so beautiful. Although Junjun is a little naughty, he still acts like a big brother at critical moments and is very loyal.]

[Xiaoyi is also very well behaved. You can see that he is very tired, but he is still determined to help his friends. ]

[However, their friends no longer need their help. I wonder if they will cry or laugh when they find out.]

[No matter what, today is another day of being touched by the beautiful friendship of children. This is why I love watching variety shows about children.]

At this time, the mothers sitting in the conference room couldn't help but show admiration on their faces. Mo Man said to Xie Bing and Shen Linyan, "You Junjun and Xiaoyi are so well-behaved. They still remember to help their younger brothers and sisters."

Xie Bing was also very happy at this time, with a proud look on his face, and said with a smile, "Ao Liangjun is usually really silly and mischievous, and is really hated by everyone. But this kid is really kind and loyal."

Shen Linyan's mind was already filled with jealousy, and she could only force out a hypocritical smile, "I have always taught Xiaoyi to be kind, even if it means suffering a little loss. Even if Xiaoyi and the others did not offer to help other children, I would have offered to do so."

The five children were still continuing their tasks. In the end, Zhou Jiayan and his team arrived at the task assembly point with the food first with a slight advantage.

When Ao Liangjun and Liang Tianyi arrived with the food, they were a little incredulous when they saw Zhou Jiayan and the others had returned. Ao Liangjun blurted out, "Yanyan, did you give up the mission and come back directly?"

Before Zhou Jiayan could answer, the arrogant princess Ying Shishuang spoke first, "How could this princess give up the mission! We have obtained all the ingredients."

As she spoke, she pointed to the ingredients on the ground next to her and said, "Look, they are all here."

Ao Liangjun immediately opened his eyes wide, with a look of shock, "How did you do this?"

Zhou Jiayan was still very proud of what he did today, but he remained calm. "I thought of a little idea. Let Yiyi stay in one place to look at things, and then the two of us will do the task. In this way, Yiyi doesn't have to run around, and we don't have to carry heavy objects everywhere, which can save a lot of time."

Ao Liangjun and Liang Tianyi immediately understood.

Ao Liangjun slapped his forehead and shouted, "Why didn't I think of this? You don't know that in the end, Xiaoyi and I both had our hands bruised by the bag."

Liang Tianyi looked at Zhou Jiayan with sparkling eyes and admiration, "Yanyan, you are so amazing."

Zhou Jiayan was a little embarrassed and smiled shyly, "Hehe, I suddenly thought of this on a whim."

【Hahaha, Yanyan is shy. 】

[Don't be shy, today is really great, many adults may not be able to come up with this. ]

[The kids are great too, everyone praised me sincerely, no one was jealous.]

Afterwards, the children brought their ingredients back to the task gathering place in the center of the village, and the mothers were already standing outside the door to greet the children.

The mothers were very happy because the children did not cry or make a fuss after leaving their mothers, but completed their tasks well. They saw the growth of their children and felt very proud.

When Xie Bing saw the sweaty little fat boy, she no longer "disdained" him like before. Instead, she hugged him and gave him a big kiss, saying, "Junjun performed really well today. Mom is proud of you."

Ao Liangjun embarrassedly touched his cheek where his mother had kissed him, and laughed, "Hehe."

As for Mo Man and Cui Xia, their only request to the two little girls was that they cooperate with their brother to complete the task without crying. How many ingredients they could get was secondary. Now that they saw that they had successfully completed the task, they were naturally very proud.

As for Shen Linyan, she felt a little disgusted that Liang Tianyi was not as smart as Zhou Jiayan, but because of the big mistake she made before, she naturally did not dare to show it now. She just praised him half-heartedly, "Xiaoyi, you worked hard today. That's great."

Liang Tianyi felt a little disappointed when he heard Shen Linyan's insincere words. He really couldn't understand why his relationship with Shen Linyan had turned out like this.

Soon he thought of his biological mother, Tan Qisi. If his mother were here, she would definitely hug him, praise him and give him a big kiss.

But it doesn't matter, his mother promised him that she would be with him forever soon, and he can't be so greedy and want both mothers to be so nice to him.

Zhou Jiayan couldn't hold back his expression when he stood in front of Shen Qingqing. The smug smile on his face almost overflowed. He tilted his head, waiting to receive his mother's praise today.

Shen Qingqing felt amused as she watched the kid who was in the spotlight today. Why was he asking for praise so obviously? He was really not subtle at all!

But he did perform very well today, so Shen Qingqing touched her chin and said, "Yanyan did well today, and performed very well. It turns out that after staying with mom for a long time, he has become smarter."

Zhou Jiayan was very happy when he heard the first half of his mother's words, but when he heard the second half, he began to feel something was wrong. Why did his mother end up praising him?

He was a little worried just now whether his request for praise was a little too obvious, but now it seems that she is still too reserved.

After the mothers finished talking to the children, director Xu Xiang came on stage again. Today he was really shocked by the little guy. He originally thought that the little guy was so unlucky that he would definitely lose.

This grouping was not really arranged by their program team. After all, if the gap in strength is too great, the competition will lose its meaning and the program will not be interesting.

But what he didn't expect was that the little guy gave him such a big surprise!

However, as a director, he should not be too biased.

So he just smiled and nodded to Zhou Jiayan to show his praise. He thought that the child was so smart that he should be able to understand what he meant, but the child was only talking to Shen Qingqing and ignored him at this time.

But his smile was seen by Ao Liangjun, and the little fat boy shouted, "Wow, uncle, your face just cramped."

Xu Xiang: ...Forget it, I’d better not laugh anymore.

Xu Xiang was used to being beaten by these kids, so he didn't feel depressed for long. He soon cheered up and announced to the kids, "The kids all performed very well today and completed their tasks. But today's final winners are still Zhou Jiayan, Ying Shishuang, and Song Yiyi. In addition to the ingredients for the tasks, you will also receive a reward prepared by the program team, a rich fruit feast. I believe it will definitely bring a bit of coolness to the kids in the hot summer."

Afterwards, Shen Qingqing saw the staff pushing a small cart, on which were placed a variety of fruits such as watermelons, oranges, pears, mangoes, grapes, etc.

As soon as the cart was pushed up, Ao Liangjun exclaimed "Wow", he really wanted to eat fruit.

He licked his dry lips. It was a pity that he had just lost the game. As he thought about it, he lowered his head.

Zhou Jiayan was also very happy looking at the fruits on the cart, after all, they were obtained through his hard work.

But soon he saw Ao Liangjun who was looking dejected at the side. It seemed that Brother Junjun also wanted to eat.

If only the three of them could eat the fruit and Junjun and Xiaoyi couldn't, they would definitely be very sad.

Moreover, when the game started, although Junjun's brother was very childish and wanted to be his elder brother, he also wanted to share the food with them. Now it was their turn, and they couldn't be so stingy.

Thinking of this, they ran to the two little girls and whispered to each other for a while. Then the three of them raised their hands and said, "Uncle Director, we just discussed that we want to share these fruits with brother Junjun and Xiaoyi as well."

Xu Xiang was surprised again when he heard what the children said.

It’s not like he hadn’t encountered kids sharing their winnings before, but most of the time they were taught by their mothers. But this time, it was the three kids who took the initiative!

The audience in the live broadcast room also became excited.

[Wow, these three kids are really great. They even took the initiative to share fruits with other kids.]

[I really like the little ones this time. In fact, at the beginning of the competition, the little fat boy also said that he would share the food with his younger brothers and sisters. ]

【They are all good children. 】

When Liang Tianyi saw his friends taking the initiative to share the fruits with them, he immediately smiled. He knew that Yanyan and the others would not abandon him and brother Junjun.

After hearing what Zhou Jiayan and the others said, Ao Liangjun's eyes lit up, "Woo woo woo, Yanyan, Shuangshuang, Yiyi, you guys are so kind. From now on, you will be under my protection. As long as I am here, no one will dare to bully you."

Zhou Jiayan listened to Ao Liangjun's "big brother"-like declaration and suddenly felt a little regretful.

Ying Shishuang even confronted him directly, "This princess doesn't want your protection."

The adults around also laughed when they saw the interaction between the children.

In any case, both they and the children have grown a lot in this show.

Then the children began to chat and laugh while sharing the fruit, taking one bite after another, and when they finished the fruit, it was time for them to take their food home.

At this time, Shen Qingqing looked at the overly fresh ingredients in the bag and then remembered, Oh my God, could it be that she was going to use the earthen stove to prepare dinner for the two of them today?
